How do people get sick?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Viruses spread through tiny droplets in the air that are released when a sick person sneezes, coughs, or blows their nose. You can get sick if you touch your nose, eyes, or mouth after you have touched something contaminated by the virus, such as a toy, countertop, or doorknob.

Explanation:

A cold virus enters your body through your mouth, eyes or nose. The virus can spread through droplets in the air when someone who is sick coughs, sneezes or talks. It also spreads by hand-to-hand contact with someone who has a cold or by sharing contaminated objects, such as eating utensils, towels, toys or telephones.

PLS FAST!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! 30 POINTS!! The Zika virus spreads through the bite of infected mosquitos. Many people fight off the infection without any serious harm. However, if pregnant women get infected, the disease can cause serious birth defects.

Conduct research online to determine what social or environmental conditions help protect people against exposure to the Zika virus.

List at least three social or environmental factors that protect people against the negative effects of the Zika virus.
Write a question for another student to answer, focusing on social and environmental conditions that benefit health.

Answers

Answer:

You see not only poverty, but the environmental degradation, uncollected garbage, discarded tires filled with water, areas of un-drained water. These create habitats for mosquitoes, which then spread deadly viruses.

Explanation:

Zika virus disease is generally mild, and severe disease requiring hospitalization and deaths are uncommon.Zika infection during pregnancy can cause serious birth defects and is associated with other pregnancy problems.Rarely, Zika may cause Guillain-Barré syndrome, an uncommon sickness of the nervous system in which a person’s own immune system damages the nerve cells, causing muscle weakness, and sometimes, paralysis.Very rarely, Zika may cause severe disease affecting the brain, causing swelling of the brain or spinal cord or a blood disorder which can result in bleeding, bruising or slow blood clotting.

Have a great day! :D

Answer:

Through mosquito bites

Zika virus is transmitted to people primarily through the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito (Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus). These are the same mosquitoes that spread dengue and chikungunya viruses.

These mosquitoes typically lay eggs in or near standing water in things like buckets, bowls, animal dishes, flower pots, and vases. They prefer to bite people, and live indoors and outdoors near people.

Mosquitoes that spread chikungunya, dengue, and Zika bite during the day and night.

A mosquito gets infected with a virus when it bites an infected person during the period of time when the virus can be found in the person’s blood, typically only through the first week of infection.

Infected mosquitoes can then spread the virus to other people through bites.

From mother to child

A pregnant woman can pass Zika virus to her fetus during pregnancy. Zika is a cause of microcephaly and other severe fetal brain defects. We are studying the full range of other potential health problems that Zika virus infection during pregnancy may cause.

A pregnant woman already infected with Zika virus can pass the virus to her fetus during the pregnancy or around the time of birth.

Zika virus has been found in breast milk. Possible Zika virus infections have been identified in breastfeeding babies, but Zika virus transmission through breast milk has not been confirmed. Additionally, we do not yet know the long-term effects of Zika virus on young infants infected after birth. Because current evidence suggests that the benefits of breastfeeding outweigh the risk of Zika virus spreading through breast milk, CDC continues to encourage mothers to breastfeed, even if they were infected or lived in or traveled to an area with risk of Zika. CDC continues to study Zika virus and the ways it can spread and will update recommendations as new information becomes available.

Through sex

Zika can be passed through sex from a person who has Zika to his or her partners. Zika can be passed through sex, even if the infected person does not have symptoms at the time. Learn how to protect yourself during sex.

It can be passed from a person with Zika before their symptoms start, while they have symptoms, and after their symptoms end.

Though not well documented, the virus may also be passed by a person who carries the virus but never develops symptoms.

Studies are underway to find out how long Zika stays in the semen and vaginal fluids of people who have Zika, and how long it can be passed to sex partners. We know that Zika can remain in semen longer than in other body fluids, including vaginal fluids, urine, and blood.

Through blood transfusion

To date, there have not been any confirmed blood transfusion transmission cases in the United States.

There have been multiple reports of possible blood transfusion transmission cases in Brazil.

During the French Polynesian outbreak, 2.8% of blood donors tested positive for Zika and in previous outbreaks, the virus has been found in blood donors.

Through laboratory and healthcare setting exposure

There are reports of laboratory acquired Zika virus infections, although the route of transmission was not clearly established in all cases.

To date, no cases of Zika virus transmission in healthcare settings have been identified in the United States. Recommendations are available for healthcare providers to help prevent exposure to Zika virus in healthcare settings.

Risks

Anyone who lives in or travels to an area with risk of Zika and has not already been infected with Zika virus can get it from mosquito bites. Once a person has been infected, he or she is likely to be protected from future infections.

Why would you recommend those activities?

Answers

enjoying walks, talking with family, seeking professional help. i would recommend those activities because the first two help you realize what you’re missing out on, and the second one is to get proper help with becoming sober, safely.
What activities would you recommend for Mike?

I’d recommend that he starts enjoying time family and friends as well as focus on his studies like through tutoring or activities after school to keep him away from drugs. If the substance abuse cannot be handled through regular methods he should seek rehabilitation and therapy and counseling to help connect with others who do not enable substance abuse.

Why would you recommend those activities?

Distracting himself away from substance and surrounding himself with people who care for him can help him realize there is much more to life and through therapy and counseling he can meet others that are like him making him feel less alone.

there is need of participation of all people in biodiversity conservation. give reasons​

Answers

Answer:

In our country, legally established Protected Areas have historically been the most important means adopted for biodiversity conservation. Protected Areas primarily include National Parks and Wildlife Sanctuaries, and more recently, Community Reserves and Conservation Reserves. The task of conservation has become even more difficult as most protected areas are surrounded by people who are alienated from the aims and need for wildlife conservation. Restrictions on forest use, poorly managed village displacement, conflicts with wildlife, and unclear forest rights, fuel resentment amongst local communities. A cooperative local community can help to reduce poaching and other illegal activities, and provide knowledge and human resource for better ecosystem management. Public participation and outreach also go a long way in developing a more conducive ambience for dialoguing with different stakeholders in situations of conflict. With much less policing to do, protected areas managers can focus more on constructive activities such as research and wildlife management. For a long time, the public involvement in protected areas management was restricted to appointing naturalists and wildlife enthusiasts as Honorary Wildlife Wardens. Further, the interface of protected areas managers and Wardens with local villagers was restricted to fining them for illegal activities such as grazing or poaching.

The most significant strategy for preserving biodiversity in our nation has traditionally been the establishment of legally recognized protected areas.

What is biodiversity conservation?

National parks, wildlife sanctuaries, community reserves, and conservation reserves are the main types of protected areas.

The majority of protected areas are surrounded by people who are hostile to the needs and goals of animal conservation, making the mission of conservation even more challenging.

Local communities' discontent is fueled by restrictions on forest usage, poorly managed community relocation, problems with animals, and ambiguous forest ownership.

Therefore, additionally, public involvement and outreach significantly improve the environment for dialogue with many stakeholders when there is disagreement.
